Many of the process industries — among them, food and beverage, chemical processing, pulp and paper, pharmaceutical and mining — use vast amounts of water and energy in their day-to-day operations. 

As boilers age, they become less efficient, thereby increasing operational costs. Replacing the boiler is the obvious choice; however, it may not be necessary. If the boiler pressure vessel is in good shape, upgrading the burner and controls while adding heat recovery can not only restore a boiler to its original efficiency but probably improve it.

Boiler Lizard contains vapor-phase corrosion inhibitor powder in a polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) water-soluble bag. The corrosion inhibitor powder is free of phosphates, heavy metals, nitrites and free amines.

Boilers used for steam and energy production, or operations such as washing, are sometimes taken offline for inspection and maintenance, or kept for backup use. Another common time for boilers to be out of service is during shipment or while in storage at a new plant still under construction.

Nationwide Boiler Inc. extended its network of storage and maintenance facilities for rental and stock boiler equipment.

Nationwide Boiler Inc. achieved the lowest possible Experience Modification Rate (EMR) of 0.61. The industry benchmark EMR is 1.0.

It is no secret that routine boiler maintenance is important to avoid boiler equipment failure.
